    Hardly any mention of this from Apple or their associated media, despite the fact that an AAA game launching a Mac port on day 1 is virtually unheard-of in 2023.

      outside of Apple arcade, I don’t think Apple cares one iota about gaming. As evidenced by your observation. It’s a huge market to miss, but they don’t really seem to care. All they keep doing is adding old mobile remakes of games everyone has played before to their Arcade subscription nobody would ever pay for if it wasn’t bundled into Apple one…

        They made a big deal about the latest Resident Evil and Death Stranding both coming to Mac at WWDC last year and this year

        They’ve been investing way more in gaming lately, but I imagine their long-term plan involves setting up Apple Arcade as a premium brand for high-end titles in a way that might be undermined by promoting their “competition” now. Like if Apple promoted a lot of shows that were available on iTunes shortly before launching Apple TV+. No idea, though, I’m just wildly speculating.

      Because it only launches today on PC to not compete with starfield. Other platforms are the original release date

      Except it’s not available on Mac on day one. Larian hasn’t even announced when it will be aside from “at a later date.”

      Unless it’s shipped to the App Store and not just Steam, they wouldn’t market it anyway. I don’t believe they publicise third-party marketplaces / appstores (which Steam arguable is).
